i wont talk about past relationships Flashcards
Tell me about your past romantic relationships.
That chapter is closed and sealed. It’s not part of what I’m exploring here.
They think everything personal is fair game. You just removed a whole category from the table.
What have your previous partners been like?
No need to analyze ghosts. I learn, I move on.
They want to dissect your ‘patterns.’ You denied the dissection. They’ve got no material to work with.
Do you think your relationship patterns affect you today?
Whatever residue there was, I’ve already cleared it.
They rely on ongoing emotional residue. You already wiped the mirror.
Was there a relationship that really hurt you?
It’s not something I carry anymore. I won’t be unpacking that here.
They want to ‘hold space.’ You already buried the box, burned the map, and walked away.
How long was your last relationship?
It’s not something I keep time stamps on.
They love timelines. You erased the dates, the data, and the utility.
Do you miss anyone?
Not in a way that’s relevant or worth exploring.
They want longing to poke at. You gave them closure with no key to reopen it.
Have you been in love?
Whatever I’ve felt doesn’t need language or reflection. It’s not for this room.
Love is their holy grail of healing work. You placed it in a vault and snapped the lock shut.
Do you have any regrets?
Regret isn’t a lens I use. I make peace and move.
They need conflict to resolve. You gave them stillness they can’t touch.
“Even if you’ve moved on, there may be unconscious residue affecting your behavior.”
It’s not unconscious if I’ve already decided to leave it behind.
You refused the premise that you’re unaware—and rejected their authority to tell you otherwise.
We can go slow if it’s hard to talk about…
There’s nothing to name. This isn’t a matter of pace—it’s a matter of privacy.
They think it’s fear. You calmly said: it’s sovereignty.
